• Manolo Blahnik on platform soles: “These are so vulgar — especially the ones with the perspex platforms like you see in 1970s porno films. So shocking! To friends I can say anything, so I might say: ‘Those shoes are vile!’ (I like to tell the truth in a funny way if I can), while to someone I don’t know, I might say: ‘My God you look wonderful! Your dress is divine but the volume of your leg is wrong in those shoes.’” [Racked]
